The end of April, despite the countless holidays and only 12 or so full working days, sees not only the team of Trevors, Christo and Patrick wondering how they are going to cope with the next five days work week, but the motor industry in general remains a state of turmoil.  The team put forward thier plans for survival, although if you’ve heard thier car reviews, this could be interesting.
